Chapter 980
"It's already started. The braised pork stewed with licorice was discovered. Now they have firmly controlled the diet in their own hands, but they certainly didn't expect that this was just a false shot by us."

Deliberately revealing a flaw to Su Luo and the others to divert their attention, in fact, the real ruthless move is still in a darker place.

"What about the arrangements elsewhere?"

"All arrangements have been made, but smallpox takes a certain amount of time from infection to onset. It is estimated that it will take at least four or five days to appear."

Wei Jing nodded: "Censor also contact me, let them attack together when the time comes!"

The subordinate answered yes.

After spending a whole day thinking about plots and tricks, Wei Jing also felt a little tired at the moment. After repeated persuasion by her subordinates, she also washed up and took a rest.

The next day was a day off, maybe it was because he used his brain too much the first day, and he slept until the sun was high on the second day before getting up.

As soon as I got up, the people below came to report: "Your Highness, the team from last night has not returned yet, nor has there been any news!"

"This subordinate asked someone to ask, last night they took the token of Prince Rui's residence and left from the north of the city."

North of the city?

Isn't that the direction where the hospital is located?
Could it be that Xiaoxin fled there?

The focus of the search last night was always in the city, everyone thought that Xiaoxin would go to Prince Huan's Mansion or other mansions that were at odds with Prince Rui to seek asylum.

Privately, I feel that the possibility of him leaving the city is extremely small.

But thinking about it now, it seemed like a good decision to enter the hospital.

If he really heard the news yesterday, then he should tell the person in charge of treating smallpox in the hospital.

Wei Jing's eyes flickered with gloom, and he thought to himself, it really can't be a woman's kindness.

If Xiaoxin had been dealt with early, it would not have caused such a big trouble.

His face was gloomy and terrifying, and he ordered in a deep voice: "Prepare your horse! Call a hundred guards and follow me out of the city."

According to the system of the Yue Kingdom, the prince can have five hundred guards.

500 people say more or less, and say less or less.

On weekdays, all the prefectures are very low-key, and it is a big deal to bring two to thirty people when traveling normally. Wei Jing mobilized so many people this time, and when he left the city, he attracted a lot of onlookers.

Everyone was talking.

"What is His Royal Highness Prince Rui going to bring so many people out of the city?"

"It doesn't look like it's going hunting or playing!"

Then someone replied mysteriously: "I heard that the residence of Prince Rui was attacked by assassins last night, almost hurting Fujin and the child in her stomach. Prince Rui is going out of the city to arrest him!"

"Where did the assassin come from? Such boldness?"

"I heard that he is someone close to Prince Rui, but this assassin may have been lurking for a long time, who knows what's going on! If he dares to attack Fujin and the child, I think the assassin will be very dangerous!"

……

After the people arranged by Wei Jing made some speeches, the people in Ye City soon knew the purpose of Wei Jing's mobilization of so many troops, and they all lamented that the assassin was so daring that he must be doomed today.

Su Luo and Miracle Doctor Ji are seeing their patients in the infirmary.

The condition of the patients is getting better day by day. Five patients with mild symptoms are basically no different from ordinary people. As long as there is no problem after a few days of observation, they will be considered cured.

And the blisters on the child with the most serious condition had also scabbed over. Although he had lost a lot of weight, his mental state was still good, and he could show a smile from time to time.

Seeing that the prescription he bought for 1000 taels played such a big role, Su Luo was quite proud.

This deal is worth it!
Fortunately, the 1000 taels of silver were not saved at the beginning.

The morning passed quickly, and it was time for lunch.

Today's lunch was prepared by the cook of Prince Huan's Mansion. Su Luo and Doctor Ji checked it out and found nothing wrong.Just as he was about to be sent there, the guard came to report that Xiaoxin had woken up.

Su Luo hurried over.

Xiaoxin's face was pale, and his condition was very bad. His lips had a thick layer of white skin, and he looked as if he would die at any time.

He hadn't finished his words last night, and he was always afraid that countless innocent people would die because of it.

It was probably because of this concern that he forced himself to wake up.

"I, how long have I been in a coma?"

"one night!"

Hearing this, Xiaoxin relaxed his tense nerves, and a faint bitter smile appeared on his pale face: "That's good, don't use the water here, Prince Rui inhaled chronic poisoning in the nearby water source. poison!"

Su Luo's eyes widened in surprise.

Poison the water?

In addition to them, the nearby water also irrigates the fields for the use of nearby villagers.

The river closest to the hospital is a common source of water for Su Luo and the others, and it will flow down a dozen villages, where at least a thousand people live.

Is this crazy? This is completely disregarding the life and death of the people, as long as he has his own power.

After Imperial Physician Wei and Divine Physician Ji heard the news, they immediately checked the water that the guards brought from the small river not far away.

It is indeed very slightly toxic.

Ordinary people will not have major problems if they eat it once or twice, but if they take it for a long time, it will cause skin ulceration all over the body.

This is consistent with the performance of smallpox patients, which can easily be misunderstood because smallpox has not been cured at all.

With the licorice incident before, everyone will only double their precautions against those who cook, and they will not think of the problem of water.

After a few days, not only the sickness of the old and weak women and children did not seem to be relieved, but even Su Luo and the guards would have rashes all over their bodies.

In today's circumstances, it's easy to think that people with rashes are infected with smallpox.

In this way, how can people be convinced that they really have the ability to treat smallpox?

The water source is always flowing, if Wei Jing stops poisoning at that time, Su Luo and the others will not be able to find the root of the problem at all?

This method is really ruthless.

Su Luo ordered: "Hurry up and throw away all these meals, let them eat some dry food brought from the mansion for lunch today, and then carefully check everything related to food, whether it is water or dishes. "

Xiaoxin took a deep breath and said exactly what he had read on his lips yesterday.

The more Su Luo and Jiang Fei listened, the more frightened they became.

They knew that Wei Jing wanted the crown prince, but they didn't expect him to be so vicious. This was to use the lives of the people of Yecheng as a bargaining chip for Wei Shu to step down.

And in this incident, Fu Wang Weiyan unequivocally supported Wei Shu.

He must also be affected, and in this way, only Prince Rui Wei Jing is left as a suitable candidate for the crown prince.

Knowing that smallpox would be a deadly disease once it spread, he still did this.

This person's heart is probably black from the inside out.

Cruel and merciless is not enough to describe him!

Su Luo clenched his hands into fists, trembling with anger.

After Xiaoxin said these words, he was already exhaling more and taking in less.

Su Luo held his hand tightly, and said in a warm voice: "Take good care of your illness, I will let the empress heal you well, and live a good life!"

As soon as the words finished, the guard opened the door and came in, with a flustered look on his face: "Little princess, Prince Rui is leading a hundred people towards the hospital!"
